I was quite surprised to find that the Croatian Association of Comic Strip Friends and Strip Forum Publishing Company produced this year's calendar using thirteen of my comics for the youth paper Polet, from 1976-78. I'm also pleased that Mladen Novakovic, the publisher of Strip Forum,
has agreed to distribute this calendar free-of-charge.
